ROY ON ALFIE

"Five minutes from time, I lunged at him in desperation," says Keane in his
book.

"I knew it would mean a booking but **** it. As I slid in, my studs caught the
turf and I heard my cruciate ligament snap."

"Some three years on, I still hadn't forgotten him," he writes. "Now it was Man
City at home, his new club, fighting relegation.

"I waited until five minutes from the end. I ****ing hit him hard. I think the ball was there. 'Take that, you ****'. I didn't even wait for the ref to show the red
card. I turned and walked toward the dressing room."
